Rare orca superpod comes to Seattle
They came together Sunday evening not far from Port Townsend. Why, no one can say for sure, except the participants themselves — and no humans speak their language.

ICE isn’t arresting anyone
“Arrest” implies due process under fair rule of law
They are abducting our neighbors
Words matter

Right now the Pacific NW (US) is long on rain and short on daylight. Keith, who helps with garden projects, wrangled the giant big-leaf maples leaf-fall. He’s spent 2 half-days, 1 more to go.
I cleaned up Panther’s paths. His presence was very strong there.

A gold-standard NORC poll just dropped Trump to a devastating 33% approval & Republicans are peeling off fast, down 13 points since March. When one of the most credible pollsters in America shows your own base running for the lifeboats, it’s not a “deep-state hoax.” It’s a collapsing presidency.

I talked myself right back into bed (again) when my alarm rang to tell me to go to the pool for water aerobics class.

Many Americans are hurting right now because of the shutdown, but caving to Republicans won’t end the hurt.
Trump and his lapdogs continue to assert that they alone have the power to slash whatever programs they don’t like.
Deals with this regime are meaningless.

It’s been a subdued birthday. I spent the day with my dear friend Melody, who I met through our first greyhounds 23 years ago. It was perfect. We treated ourselves to a comfort food lunch followed by exquisite French pastries from Left Bank.

Dear Pundit, I don’t care which group you represent, I don’t want to see your bed (hotel or otherwise) in the background of your Zoom screen. It’s tacky/TMI.

Well, a greyhound’s accoutrements sure do multiply like baby bunnies over his lifetime.
Today I’ve washed (4) dog bed covers, (2) car pillows, (1) car step cover, (3) belly bands, and (3) throw blankets.
I’ll donate this haul to the wonderful Olympia group, ConcernForAnimals.org.

Panther has been out for his Pup Cup treat. Next comes cleaning him up a bit, then a walk, then his angel trip. Thank you to everyone who’s been there, done that, for your kind support.

I can’t tell if this is a bit.
Defense is now questioning Lairmore on cross-examination. They show a video still of the sandwich and wrapper on the ground, post-throw.
"Do you recognize that sandwich?" the attorney asks.
Lairmore won't confirm.
"I did not go back to collect it," he says.

One neighbor came by with a loaf of sourdough bread he had made. It was still warm from the oven. How nice is that!

@atrupar.com, So what I want to know is, is there enough money in the contingency fund for SNAP to pay full benefits for at least one month, or more? I want to see the numbers.
Is there any reason beyond punishing poor people for the Trump administration to pay only half of folks’ benefit amount?
